PAPAL HUMOR

PART EIGHT

Yea, there are those who would like
To gain popularity in a cheap way
The Pope could cut the truth
To the “great people” who stand next to him

How amazing it was to see
How they were made themselves
What hours each hour words
Various spoke greeting him

The Pope fidgeted eloquently
And stupidly looked at the ceiling
Sometimes he seemed to be praying
And he is absent during difficult times

Then he cut it off one sentence
And so sensibly that it became clear
That even if he prayed deeply
It did not shed any thought

Yes, he was patient and diplomatic
But when senselessly chanted
“Long live the plunder” he joked
“Hello, Deer” told himself

Paparazzi

He grinned at the photographers
He even made “monkey eyes” once
He nodded at the journalists
He patted anyone on the back

He must have had a lot of patience
So when he was a little old
He was falling into a deep nap
While the crowds chanted

He told us to eat cream cakes
Although he might not have planned it
What nicknames Wadowice
Gave to nearby villages…

He was quoting Antygona for a joke
Although the topic is not playful
He was doing an exam of geography
To the most experienced mountaineers of Tatry

But of all his gestures
I and many people remember
Like the Pope waved in resiguation
As he was chasing flies from himself

This gesture he made in Wadowice
Not insuting the liturgist
Who interrupted in a very polite way
His memories of Wadowice!

In Silesia he spoke about himself
What is this “senseless pope”
He promised to go, he didn`t come
When they didn`t wait, he comes!
